Description
Performance Metrics
The Dell 603HF 960GB SED vSAS Read Intensive eTLC 2.5inch Hot-plug Solid State Drive (SSD) is a high-performance storage device designed for use in enterprise-class servers and storage systems. Here are the performance metrics of this SSD:
- Capacity: The Dell 603HF SSD has a storage capacity of 960GB, which can hold a significant amount of data.
- Form factor: This SSD has a 2.5-inch form factor, which is a standard size for enterprise-grade SSDs. It can be easily installed in most servers and storage systems that support 2.5-inch drives.
- Interface: The Dell 603HF SSD uses the vSAS (virtual Serial Attached SCSI) interface, which provides high-speed data transfer rates of up to 12 Gbps. This interface is designed to provide faster data transfer rates than the standard SAS interface.
- Read-intensive workloads: The Dell 603HF SSD is designed for read-intensive workloads, which means it is optimized for applications that require high read speeds and less write activity, such as caching, data warehousing, and data analytics.
- eTLC (Enterprise Triple-Level Cell) NAND technology: This SSD uses eTLC NAND technology, which provides higher durability and longer lifespan than consumer-grade TLC NAND. It provides a balance between performance and endurance.
- Self-Encrypting Drive (SED) technology: The Dell 603HF SSD is equipped with SED technology, which provides hardware-based encryption of the drive’s data to protect against unauthorized access or theft.
- Hot-plug capability: The Dell 603HF SSD can be added or removed from a server or storage system while the system is still running without the need for a system shutdown or reboot. This is a useful feature in enterprise environments where high availability and uptime are critical.
Endurance and Durability
The Dell 603HF 960GB SED vSAS Read Intensive eTLC 2.5inch Hot-plug Solid State Drive (SSD) is designed for enterprise use and is optimized for read-intensive workloads. It uses eTLC (Enterprise Triple-Level Cell) NAND technology, which provides a balance between performance and endurance.
The endurance of an SSD is measured in terms of the number of program/erase (P/E) cycles it can perform before the drive’s cells wear out. The Dell 603HF SSD has a program/erase cycle rating of up to 1.3 drive writes per day (DWPD) for five years, which means it can sustain 1.3 full drive writes per day for five years without exceeding its endurance rating.
In addition, the Dell 603HF SSD has a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) rating of 2 million hours, which indicates its reliability and durability. The MTBF rating is the average time between failures of a device, and the higher the rating, the more reliable the device.
The Dell 603HF SSD also features power-loss protection, which helps to prevent data loss or corruption in the event of a power failure or other unexpected shutdown. This feature helps to ensure the integrity of the drive’s data and reduces the risk of data loss.
Form Factor and Compatibility
The Dell 603HF 960GB SED vSAS Read Intensive eTLC 2.5inch Hot-plug Solid State Drive (SSD) has a 2.5-inch form factor, which is a standard size for enterprise-grade SSDs. This means it is designed to fit into any server or storage system that supports 2.5-inch drives.
The Dell 603HF SSD uses the vSAS (virtual Serial Attached SCSI) interface, which provides high-speed data transfer rates of up to 12 Gbps. It is compatible with servers and storage systems that support the SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) or SATA (Serial ATA) interface, as long as an appropriate adapter is used.
The Dell 603HF SSD is optimized for read-intensive workloads, which means it is best suited for applications that require high read speeds and less write activity, such as caching, data warehousing, and data analytics. It uses eTLC (Enterprise Triple-Level Cell) NAND technology, which provides higher durability and longer lifespan than consumer-grade TLC NAND. This makes it a reliable storage device for enterprise applications.
In addition, the Dell 603HF SSD is equipped with SED (Self-Encrypting Drive) technology, which provides hardware-based encryption of the drive’s data to protect against unauthorized access or theft. This makes it an ideal choice for applications that require high levels of security, such as financial services, healthcare, and government agencies.
